Serratia marcescens B4A chitinase thermostability enhancement by S390I QuikChange site directed mutagenesis
Thermostable chitinases are useful for industrial and biotechnological applications. This paper reports the stabilization of chitinase from Serratia marcescens B4A through rational mutagenesis. Changing of Ser 390 to Ile in S. marcescens. The stabilization was enhanced through entropic stabilization by reduction of the loop length and also by increasing of the beta chain length. With this repla...
متن کاملIdentification of active site residues essential to 4-chlorobenzoyl-coenzyme A dehalogenase catalysis by chemical modification and site directed mutagenesis.
4-Chlorobenzoyl-coenzyme A (4-CBA-CoA) dehalogenase catalyzes the hydrolysis of 4-CBA-CoA to 4-hydroxybenzoyl-coenzyme A (4-HBA-CoA) via a nucleophilic aromatic substitution pathway involving the participation of an active site carboxylate side chain in covalent catalysis. In this paper we report on the identification of conserved aspartate, histidine, and tryptophan residues essential to 4-CBA...
متن کاملSite-Directed Mutagenesis Study
Structural elements of the rat 1.t-opioid receptor important in ligand receptor binding and selectivity were examined using a site-directed mutagenesis approach. Five single amino acid mutations were made, three that altered conserved residues in the ~ 8, and K receptors (Asn 15°t Ala, His297 to Ala, and Tyr326 to Phe) and wo de igned to test for ~i/8 selectivity (lie198 to Val and Va1202 to li...
متن کاملEngineering of cytochrome P450 3A4 for enhanced peroxide-mediated substrate oxidation using directed evolution and site-directed mutagenesis.
CYP3A4 has been subjected to random and site-directed mutagenesis to enhance peroxide-supported metabolism of several substrates. Initially, a high-throughput screening method using whole cell suspensions was developed for H2O2-supported oxidation of 7-benzyloxyquinoline. Random mutagenesis by error-prone polymerase chain reaction and activity screening yielded several CYP3A4 mutants with enhan...
متن کاملHomology modeling and site-directed mutagenesis to identify selective inhibitors of endothelin-converting enzyme-2.
Endothelin-converting enzyme-2 (ECE-2), a member of M13 family of zinc metallopeptidases, has previously been shown to process a number of neuropeptides including those derived from prodynorphin, proenkephalin, proSAAS, and amyloid precursor protein. ECE-2, unlike ECE-1, exhibits restricted neuroendocrine distribution and acidic pH optimum; it is consistent with a role in the regulation of neur...
